Dreamwidth Plans

First of all, I've got my first Dreamwidth invite code. I suppose I should set up my list of people who want 'em. Comment to this post if you want one, and I'll try to send it out this morning. Otherwise, the best way continues to be to set up an OpenID account.

In moving to Dreamwidth, I want to do my best to remove my content from pages that contain LJ ads. To that end, after I transfer all of my entries over to Dreamwidth, I think I'll go through the LJ entries and remove the text, with links redirecting to the corresponding DW page. Old comments will be kept intact too. Then I'll put a floating post on the front page redirecting to Dreamwidth, and I'll limit the number of entries per page to 1.

On the other hand, if you're using an LJ friends page, you've already made your own decision about ads, so I don't have a problem crossposting. I'll probably limit comments to the Dreamwidth entry, though, and after a little while, I'll mark the LJ posts private so that they only exist on Dreamwidth.

I haven't decided precisely how I'm going to manage my own reading across sites. It'll have a lot to do with the specifics of how a few features work out. Those specifics may change my plan above, too.

Also, I'm trying to add tags to all my entries, starting from the beginning. I've started it on LJ, but I'll probably finish it on DW. So far, I've finished March of 2002. It turns out, I posted a lot about sleep and online personals. I don't know how interesting you'll find most of it, but I did add a best of 2002 tag that might be of continuing interest.

I would rather like one, yes, if at all possible. :)

I'd be interested in trying Dreamwidth if you have an invite to spare.

Yeah, I signed up with OpenID and got myself one. Thanks for checking :).

I'll bite, if you're still offering!

Hello =) I wandered in from Google. I hope you don't mind. I would really love a code if you have one to spare. My email is kali_shey@ymail.com

Thank you, and if the offer is only open to friends, please pardon my intrusion and just remove my comment =)

Though I feel insufferably rude for just barging in and asking, I'd love one if you had a spare .... gina at lintqueen dot com

Many thanks, and, of course, please delete if this is just plain annoying!

Looks like a bandwagon. If you have a spare (dunno how the numbers work), I'd appreciate one.
